    Picture not understanding how the world works. The entitlement is real. Should have name yourself snowflake.



    A business whole reason is to make money, this game is not a game design out of the kindness of the heart of the developers. It is design for profit. The fact is, people are going to buy the mount. At least the developers understand that it needs to be balance good content should not come at the price of the cash shop.


    So be happy that the cash shop does not lower the quality of the game like other mmorpgs.

    I think we all understand how it works.
    It doesn't mean we should give them a pass on every single thing they do, especially when our money is involved.

    So why is it unacceptable for them to not want to make profits in this way?

    The model is in the game. The music is in the game. There is a content lull. People are still paying their sub despite the content lull prior to the expansion launch (because they like the game, want to support the game, and want to play the game).
    Why should it be acceptable?

    They already try their best to push some minor seasonal events every month to make sure people keep their sub going, I don't think they needed a mount on top of it to make profit.

    I agree, if it wasn't for Square Enix making us use our bought time to grind out or achieve one of the coolest bosses in the game, little Timmy wouldn't have been able to feed his 5 year old daughter. You keep on missing the point though. Yes, the logic from a business point of view is sound. We all know they want to make money. From a consumer point of view, however, it's a slap in the face. But you seem to readily take those. You ain't clever, friend. You are a serf to these companies. Coping by making the claim that you can just buy the mount as these companies are trying to make money off you anyways!
    I'm buying out the whole store right now man, just to support the workers, you know
